Over the last two year I've become a huge fan of cream eyeshadows used as an eyeshadow base! My two favourites are definitely MAC's "Painterly" Paint Pot and the Maybelline "35 On and On Bronze" Color Tattoo! Recently I discovered the new launched Kiko Cream Crush Lasting Colour Eyeshadows and of course I got curious!. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Very popular among British Bloggers and Youtubers the Max Factor Pastell Compact blushes finally also arrived in Germany and Switzerland. A big hooray for that!!!! Ever since I got my hands on the blushes I've been crazy about them, especially about the two more natural shades (10 Nude Mauve and 15 Seductive Pink).

What I like so much about them is, that they have everything I want in just the right amount. The pigmentation is great! It's neither over nor under pigmented. It has a wonderful sheen that gives the cheeks right amount of shimmer and natural glow, without making the face looking too shiny or over highlighted. Besides they're easy to apply and very blendable. You see, I'm a fan!

Have you already spotted the Pastell Compact blushes? How do you like them?

Once again MAC teamed up with a designer and
created a wonderful makeup collection! This time Philip Treacy, an Irish (hat) designer had the honour and
let me say, he did a great job! I think the collection looks fabulous! But let's have a quick look at some of the products and my first impression.

My Skin:
Normal-combination skin with dark spots

I have
normal to combination skin, so some parts of my face tend to be a little dry (like
my cheeks) and others a little oily (t-zone). One of the big
problems I have with my skin are red/dark spots (some sort of light pimple
scars) caused by pimples
I get every now and then (due to stress or hormonal changes).

So when it
comes to my skincare it’s important to me, that my skin gets nourished on the
one hand and on the other hand I want something to improve the appearance of my
skin and “fight” those dark spots.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I know Baselworld 2015 has already closed its doors a while ago... still I like to think back and remember the fun evening I had with all the ladies from Swarovski (thanks for having me around!!) and my blogger friends Larissa and her Co-Blogger Jessica (Laruemarie) and Andrea (Chic in Zurich).

Baselworld 2015: Swarovski Blogger Event

I was a fun evening will of funny moments, delicious drinks, snacks and food, good conversations and of course lots of jewellery and bling bling;) On the one hand we got to discover many of the Spring/Summer 2015 pieces and historical pieces at their little booth exhibition. On the other hand Nathalie Colin, the Creative Director of Swarovski, joined us at the Swarovski booth and presented us a few of the main pieces for Fall/Winter 15/16 and told us a lot about how a collection comes into being. By the way... for fall/winter 2015 we can expect a lot of pretty organic shapes like drops and new watches;)

Wow, I really don't remember when the last Instagram post was here on the blog;) Anyway... After a phase of not being too active on Instagram I'm totally enjoying it again and try to share as much as possible with you;) So if you're on Instagram too, feel free to stop by (account: miaslittlecorner)! I'd love to check out your accounts as well!

"Mac is Beauty" and Mia is happy (and her wallet a little lighter). Yesterday the new "MAC is beauty" collection was launched here in Switzerland and of course I had to check out all the beauties myself;) I was lucky to receive a few wonderful samples in advance. So in the end I "only" bought the two beauty powders!

Since I already took the pictures for this post last weekend the powders are not part of this post! But if you're interested I can do a separate post about them. Just let me know!!;)

Did you buy anything from this (huge) MAC collection? How do you like the products?

MAC "Diva-ish" Lipstick (Amplified)

What a beautiful and perfect shade for spring/summer. "Diva-ish" is described as an intense fuchsia and has an "Amplified" finish, so it's good pigmented, but still creamy. On my lips it lasted for about 4 hours, maybe 4.5 without drying out my lips and it was quite easy to apply.

Oooops, I did
it again... I've been shopping "a little" over the past weeks and
today I want to share what I found (my lastbeauty haul). I'm happy about each piece, but still I have a personal highlight: the Max Factor Pastell
Compact blushes, which I only knew from UK Bloggers and Youtubers. (I spotted
them in Germany at Müller for about 8.50 Euro). Aren't they pretty?!? I'm going tell you more about them and show you swatches in another upcoming post;)

What are your recent (beauty) purchases? Would you like to see
specific reviews?

I almost can't believe there was a time I didn't like taking a bath, cause now I can't think of anything more relaxing (especially in the evening). Of course the whole bathing thing more fun with lovely scented and nourishing products. And it's especially fun and special with Lush products. I was lucky to get a few for Easter and finally I got to try them out these cute goodies ♥

As you may know from various "Filofax Haul" posts (like this haul) I'm totally into that whole Filofax/planner decorating thing;) Although I've showed you all kind of stuff I use and bought, I've never really showed you what my planner pages look like in the end;) So it's about time you get to see some of my decorated pages! ;)

How do you like the pages? Do you also decorate your agenda pages or do you prefer "clean" and simple ones?
